@adamhotep@infosec.exchange - You're absolutely correct!
Using a password manager is a terrible idea. If a hacker gets into it, they have access to all of your passwords. Password managers are single points of failure.
It's better to write your passwords down in excel, word, or even a simple text document. You control it and the simplicity of a text file means there aren't many attack vectors to exploit!
